The price tag on my cold heart

Sunghoon picked up a few of Sunoo's things and placed them in a bag. As much as he wanted to kill Jungwon, he didn't. The male was only close to him so he wouldn't be suspicious of Sunghoon, just in case. He went around the apartment and went to a door that was locked. The door knob had a few spider webs on it, indicating that even Jungwon hadn't opened it.

Sunghoon used his skills and unscrewed the door knob without noise, entering the room that made him stop breathing. There were picture frames on the wall.

All of the pictures were him and Sunoo together.

They looked so happy.

Sunghoon's head started to spin. He hated it. He didn't want to remember. It was painful. Very, very painful. The male stumbled over and landed his hands on a table. He took a picture frame of Sunoo and him, placing it in the bag. Sunghoon knew he needed to get out. The bag was tossed on the couch and he headed to the kitchen to grab a glass of water.

He gulped it down before taking a few breaths to calm himself down. The clock showed 2 : 43 am as he screwed the door knob back. Sunghoon took his belongings and wrote a note before leaving the house. There was somewhere else he needed to be.

Sunoo began the day with doing laundry as Ni-Ki cooked breakfast. His head was spinning but he ignored it. Must have been some side effects from the medication he took last night, he thought. Usually it would be dissolved in his water so drinking it little by little did not really affect him but now it was the whole dose in one take.

"When you're done, come eat." Ni-Ki said placing a pot in the middle of the table. They woke up in the afternoon and Ni-Ki was too lazy to cook and Sunghoon had told him to give Sunoo more proper food. They wanted to end this terrible life of hiding away and always having to be secretive. That's where a plan had formed.

"I d-don't eat ?..." Sunoo whispered as he sat down, looking at Ni-Ki slurping the noodles. The boy thought that he was only allowed to eat bread and soup for the rest of his life. He had begged them so he could eat proper and more nutritious food. "Huh ? Your chopsticks are there, eat."

Explains why there was a small bowl in front of the younger. His eyes sparkled as he picked up his chopsticks and mumbled a small thank you before digging in. Ni-Ki helped him place some noodles into the small bowl. Sunoo slurped away, immediately regretting eating too fast as it was hot and it had been too long since he ate spicy food.

.

After they ate, Sunoo was in a good mood although his tongue burned slightly, lips and cheeks were still red from eating hot spicy food. "Hey, do you want to look in the mirror ?" Ni-Ki said, suggesting another part of the plan. "W-won't I look u-ugly ?" The boy's self esteem dropped ever since that choppy hair cut. His hair was obviously all black now, all the bleached parts had either grown out or been chopped off.

"Come." Ni-Ki said, pulling the boy upstairs and into Sunoo's room where he had installed a full length mirror there. The boy closed his eyes instantly after seeing the mirror, afraid of what he would see.

"Open your eyes, I'm here with you." Ni-Ki whispered as Sunoo opened his eyes. He whispered a small 'gosh' as he teared up. Sunoo still had his choppy bangs but his back hair was slightly longer now. His facial features changed as he aged. "Look at this." Ni-Ki said, lifting up the boy's shirt. "It's all bones right ? That's why now you must listen to us."
